Hawthorne Happenings
News for the City of Good
Neighbors from an Old Guy
Named Norb Huber
Winter Wonderland
Make plans to attend one of the
most fun events in Hawthorne all
year. The Parks and Recreation
and Community Services Department
of the City of Hawthorne started something
really good last year at Christmas time. The
Winter Wonderland had snow, games, gifts,
food, fun and a real Santa and Ms. Claus.
The turnout for the event was more than
expected. This year it most likely will be
even bigger. The Winter Carnival will be
held over at the Memorial Center on December
20th. Mark your calendars now for
this super event.
Your Cold One Reflects You
Now you can tell who you are by the
beer you drink. This news blog was written
by By Tyler Schmall | SWNS news:
If you’re staying in this Saturday, you
enjoy a good documentary, and you value
arts over sports, then chances are you’re
an ale drinker, according to new research.
A new study of 1,000 beer drinkers found
that the type of beer you prefer may actually
reveal a lot more than you think about
your personality. The survey, conducted by
OnePoll on behalf of Founders Brewing
Company, pitted the two factions of beer
against each other and found that lager
drinkers — or easygoing beer drinkers who
prefer something less hoppy — also tend to
be more goal-oriented and sociable. Lager
drinkers are more likely to describe their
ideal Saturday night as going out with
friends, while ale drinkers lean more towards
curling up on the couch and hanging out with
Netflix. Interestingly, lager drinkers report
higher stress levels than ale drinkers, which
may be because they report being more
likely to work hard and show up on time
for work. But despite that, ale drinkers are
the more likely bunch to say they’re happy
with their job and leading a fulfilling life,
overall. Lager lovers also tend to spend
more time worrying about their future than
their easygoing ale-admiring counterparts,
but they are more confident and more likely
to love meeting new people. But no matter
what they prefer, beer drinkers tend to be
a bit set in their ways, as the average beer
drinker hasn’t switched up their favorite
beer in four years. Not only that, over one
in three beer drinkers (36 percent) say they’re
intimidated by craft beers. “Our portfolio
has a little something for everyone, especially
the lager and ale lovers, and we hope to
break down any resistance to trying new
flavors, types and experiences with the right
beer in hand,” said Mike Stevens, CEO of
Founders. In addition to discovering the
differences between lager and ale drinkers,
the study also went on to unveil some rather
interesting habits of beer drinkers. For example,
the survey revealed that ‘Beer
o’clock’ — officially the best time to
have a beer — is exactly 6:31 p.m.
on a Friday. And, yes, taste really
matters. More people are in it for the
taste than you may think: 52 percent
rank taste first in making their beer
selection.
Happenings in Hawthorne
Things happening around the City of
Good Neighbors: The ribbon cutting for the
grand opening of the new Marriott Hotels
took place this past week. Mayor Vargas
did the honors and a new chapter in Hawthorne’s
civic area has begun. I hear that
Elon’s Boring Company is getting ready
for the grand opening of the Hawthorne
Tunnel. Where does it go? All the way
from Prairie Avenue to Hawthorne Blvd.
Elon’s rocket delivered Christmas dinner to
the astronauts stuck for the holidays on the
International Space Station. With the two
recent winter storms that hit CA last week,
the snow pack in the High Sierra Mountains
is over 100% of normal for this time of the
year. Let’s hope the storms keep on coming.
We need all the snow and water we can
get. What happens when a utility company
that is the only one serving a great portion
of the state goes bankrupt from litigation
from wide fires? The State of California
takes over to provide power. That would
not a good thing. We hope PG&E can pull
through this hectic time of massive wildfires.
What would Christmas be without
Christmas light displays on houses all over
town? Have you been to the Torrance White
Light district or Candy Cane Lane in El
Segundo. All the lights make you feel a
little more cheery. Congratulations to the
new city officials who were sworn in this
past Tuesday night. I now am officially no
longer City Clerk of Hawthorne, congrats
to my successor, Dr. Paul Jimenez. Some
people thought I was a Dr., a doctor of
BS. I really had a lot of people fooled all
of those years. Some of you thought I
was smart and really knew what I was
talking about. Now you know better. If
you read my column, you know I am an old,
retired, blow heart that loves to talk about
beer and Jesus. Sometimes it feels good
just to be us, with all of our warts and
battle scars and aches and pains and wrinkles
and grey hair and flabby waistlines and
“set in our ways” grumpiness and constant
bickering with our spouses. That just might
be the key to a happy life, accepting ourselves
for who we are and accepting others for
who they are. Christmas is a great time
to accept ourselves and simply love others.
God loves us just the way we are. Let us
live a life of JOY all year long by simply
loving others. PEACE to all of you this
Christmas time.
